Atlanta Hawks Fans Rip Own Franchsie After Luka Doncic For Trae Young Trade
Luka Doncic easily is the most decorated rookie in NBA history. Just this past season alone, he won the EuroLeague title and the Spanish League title with Real Madrid, as well as the EuroBaskets with his native country of Slovenia. He also became the youngest EuroLeague MVP, EuroLeague Final Four MVP in history and the youngest player to ever be named ACB Most Valuable Player (Spanish League MVP).
Doncic can play both the point guard and shooting guards positons, and his attributes include athleticism, basketball intelligence and ability to play against older players. He has a competitive drive, as well as unique versatility with the ability to dribble with both hands, rebound, shoot with range as well as passing and scoring in a variety of ways. In my opinion, he is the best prospect of this year’s draft.
But when the Atlanta Hawks traded the draft rights to Doncic to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Trae Young and a future pick, Hawks fans weren’t very happy (h/t to ftw.usatoday).
We have agreed to terms with the @dallasmavs on a trade for the rights to Trae Young and a 2019 first-round pick in exchange for Luka Doncic.

Y’all are disgraceful. This will be worse than when we picked Marvin over CP3
